Book
I tried to change so you don't have to : true life lessons
The Emmy Award-winning cohost of Fox's The Real and SiriusXM's Café Mocha presents a laugh-out-loud memoir about learning to resist the pressures of conformity while unlocking personal potential through self-acceptance.
Love grew up in housing projects in Detroit, more worried about affording her next meal than going on a diet. When she moved to Hollywood after graduating college with an engineering degree, seeking to break out in the entertainment world, she spent years trying to fit in. Here she tells the story of how she overcame the trap of self-improvement and instead learned to embrace who she was. In exploring her embarrassing mistakes and unexpected breakthroughs, Love shows how they taught her to take control of her destiny. -- adapted from jacket
